Justin captured every moment of our wedding day beautifully, with stunning attention to detail and creativity. He made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and his friendly, approachable demeanor put everyone at ease. The photos turned out even better than we could have imagined, perfectly capturing the emotions and joy of the day. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who is not only incredibly skilled but also a joy to work with, I highly recommend Justin and Just McCallum Photography. We are thrilled with our photos and will cherish them forever!"

12/10 Justin is the best!

Having Justin shoot our wedding and reception was easily one of the best decisions we made. As two people without social media who don’t feel comfortable taking pictures, Justin made us feel at ease and very confident in front of his lens. Both our engagement and wedding shoots were full of laughter and fun, and it is evident in the incredible photographs that we get to look back on for the rest of our lives. Justin begins with in-depth conversations over Zoom and even an in-person drinks ahead of time to ensure that personalities matched, and that expectations, wants, and needs, are clear. He asked thoughtful questions, even down to how he could intercede in awkward or unpleasant moments during the wedding, which was above and beyond his job description. This attention to detail clearly reflects how personable, thoughtful, sensitive, and compassionate Justin is. He also was so proactive and flexible in ensuring that we were inclusive and accommodating for special needs family members, which literally made me cry because that can be something very challenging to navigate and for Justin, it was just him being a good human and very good at his job.

The photos themselves came out unbelievably - to the point where we gifted our parents photo albums and other family members requested copies of their own! When we originally searched for photographers, so many wedding portfolios felt like stock images or standard, canned, or trendy poses. Justin is truly in a league of his own. His style is unique, and that is what grabbed our attention in the first place. He has a way of capturing the essence and individuality of each couple that is unparalleled. All of our friends and family continue to rave to us about how wonderful and fun he was..and we know because we had to literally purchase a digital frame to deal with the happy “problem” of having TOO MANY AMAZING photos.

TL;DR: Hire Justin. Thank us later.

As Kind as He is Talented

I don't even know where to begin. TL/DR: Hire Justin. If you are looking for a person who is as responsible as he is fun, whose pictures are an absurdly brilliant mix of editorial, candid, and artistic; who manages to capture the most joyful moments in the most moving ways, look no further. Photography was important to me; as a bride who had many friends go down the aisle before me, I tried to heed their advice: the photographer is perhaps the most important investment you can make. When I saw Justin's pictures, one word came to mind: "joy."  There was a vibrancy and humanity to his work that made me tear up just looking at his website.  This, combined with the very obvious technical skill he possessed, made me thrilled that he was still available on our wedding date.  Our initial phone call set the tone for the whole process: fun and incredibly thorough and organized.  Indeed, throughout the whole process, Justin was our go to for any questions we had; as the photographer, it made sense for him to keep an eye on logistics, but we were unprepared for how above and beyond Justin would go to make sure our day ran smoothly, from the planning process to execution. Don't let his insanely fun personality fool you: at our wedding he was heads and tails the most professional person there, ready with his shot list, keeping things moving; and yet somehow managed to keep the mood light, fun, and a little bit raunchy. Indeed, a good word for Justin is "prepared."  We had a survey to fill out before our big day, to let him know just what elements were most important to us. When I saw the photos, I couldn't believe how closely he had followed this. The sheer artistry on display, and the range of shots, it didn't seem like just one person could be responsible. The variety and quality was incredible.  And that was a direct result of our having asked for that; that is the wonderful thing about Justin, he cares deeply about his clients and pays attention to them; despite his talent there is no ego involved. He also seems to care deeply about his clients' family...and their friends...and all the wedding guests; everyone commented on how friendly and professional and fun he was. I could go on, likely, forever, but a final note: for my husband and I, the most important thing was capturing the people who came that day to celebrate with us; that was what we wanted to remember most.  We told this to Justin, and when I got the pictures back, I was blown away-- his ability to capture the essence of our family and friends, the way he captured distinct mannerisms, gestures...it was uncanny. That requires training, and artistry; but also kindness, empathy and depth.  Justin has all of those in spades.  It was important for my husband and I to hire someone we wanted to spend the day with; we didn't want him to leave! In post-production, Justin has been just as generous with his time and wrapping up any loose ends.  He stays in touch and makes sure you are thrilled with the final product. It was a pleasure to get to know him and we hope we are cool enough for him to be a part of our lives forever!  
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
